I am looking at these swan neck, round mirrors for use on another vehicle. Part number is HR-18402-RPR. Can someone who has these please provide the length of the base that mounts to the car? I need to determine if they will fit over the existing holes before I order. Many thanks.

Likely a gas tank removal and repair. Not sure if I want to tackle it or farm I out.

There is a Ray's Model A Repair listed in Cibolo, TX located outside San Antonio. Anyone out there familiar with them, ever used them? thanks

Ford3, I do plan on a proper repair of the tank. My coupe appears to be a 29 and 30 mixed bag of parts but it does have the later version bracket but the pic is taken too far under the dash to show the bracket. I am now trying to figure out how to repair that large rusty section of metal under...

I found the other links dealing with this problem. thanks for the tip.

Brent, the car is in the San Antonio area. Thanks for the info. I will do a search on the forum to gather more info to send to my mechanic for his next project.

I bought my 30 5w-coupe about 6 months ago and have had a mechanic friend doing general work on it like steering box, rebuild carb and the like. This weekend I noticed a small amount of gas on the mat under the steering column. I looked under the dash and saw the attached. I am a novice at this...

thanks. I did have the lady send me a tracing of the original glass and I plan to go to a glass shop with it and the brackets to make sure the curve of the glass and the notch in back fit the bracket. I believe my glass is 1/4" safety glass. I note in your pictures there are two screw holes...

When I got my coupe I noticed the owners before the one I bought the car from had their names etched in the windwing glass, his on the driver's side, hers on the other. After I bought the car I tracked down the lady who was a widow and gave her the windwing glass and she was very pleased. It...

Thanks - I'll find out in a few days if the glass fits the brackets or go back to Macs in exchange for 30-31 glass.

What is the difference between 28-29 and 30-31 windwing brackets? I have a 30 coupe but the windwing glass looks sort of like the 28-29 glass on the Mac site with the notches in the corners. Prior owners added things via swap meets so how can I tell if I have 28-29 or 30-31 brackets on my 30...

Saw this on Ebay. I did a forum search and didn't see anything. Any comments/reviews? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Model-A-air-cleaner-K-N-filter-system-vintage-new-/150457830506#ht_997wt_1400

I have had a chance to review Vol I and my first 6 or so projects are covered in this book so this one will keep me busy for awhile.

I am a new owner and just bought Vol. I but see that there is a Vol II out there. I am a total novice. Do I also need Vol II? (or worse should I just have ordered Vol II?)

Just bought car and the temp guage is mounted on the steering column and I want to move it under the dash via Snyder single gauge bracket A-11806AS. I am also looking at the steel dual cup holder A18120 and wanted to know if both would fit under the instrument panel. Also my gas and spark...

Thanks, I'll get the kit and see if my mechanic can rehab it and if not I'll make the change.

On week two of ownership of a 1930 Model Coupe.. Mechanic friend told me to get a basic carb rebuild kit with at least needle valve, seat and gaskets. Only marking on Carb was "Model X" What brand is it? Is it a Tillotson X? If so will the Tillotson basic rebuild kit A959OT work? thanks

I am 6'1" and it is really a tight fit in my 1930 coupe. I noticed there is about a 4" space between the top of the seat and the back window and there is some sort of a deck there. Question: Is there any way to remove this deck and move the seat back any? Today the car gets trailered 165 miles...

Thanks. Very helpful.

I just bought a 5 window coupe and the engine was built in 1929 and the title shows it to be a 1931 but from I believe most of it is a 1930. This car came with two spares, on the side and the back. On the back behind the spare is the fold down luggage rack. This is just a drive around car...
